Ingredients


16 ounces penne pasta
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup flour
3 minced garlic cloves
2 cups chicken broth
2 cups heavy cream
2 tablespoons dijon mustard
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup shredded swiss cheese
16 ounces cooked shredded or cubed chicken
16 ounces chopped ham

Topping:
1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
2 tablespoons melted butter
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder



Instructions

1 Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 9x13 baking dish.

2 Cook penne pasta as per package instructions. Drain and transfer pasta to the prepared baking dish.

3 Meanwhile, melt butter in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat. Stir in minced garlic and flour, then cook for 1 minute.

4 Gradually whisk in chicken broth and heavy cream until the mixture is smooth. Then add dijon mustard, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Allow to simmer for 3-5 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly.

5 Gradually stir in the shredded swiss cheese until it is fully melted into the sauce. Remove saucepan from heat.

6 Sprinkle cooked chicken and chopped ham evenly over the pasta in the baking dish. Pour the sauce over these ingredients, ensuring everything is coated well.

7 In a small bowl, mix together panko bread crumbs, melted butter, and garlic powder. Sprinkle this mixture over the top of the pasta.

8 Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the topping is lightly browned. Serve hot.
